Summer Fruit Tree Pruning – Sat 7 Mar or Tues 10 Mar 2020
February 29, 2020 @ 9:30 am - 2:30 pm
This workshop is part of the Garden Essentials workshop series.
Summer pruning follows hot on the heels of the summer fruit season, and is typically the best time to prune plums and peaches which are susceptible to winter diseases. We will review the techniques and theories covered in winter and you will have an opportunity to see the orchard in full flush, taste some of the heritage apples you pruned earlier in the year, and practice your pruning. We will also look at how to prune evergreen fruit trees including citrus, feijoa and avocado.
Two dates to choose from for Summer Fruit Tree Pruning
Due to everyone’s busy schedules, we’ll be running parallel and identical Saturday and Tuesday courses. (Tuesday hours, 9:30-2:30, intended to be parent-friendly)
Saturday 7 March 2020
Tuesday 10 March 2020
